The present study has numerically and experimentally investigated the spray behavior of liquid jet injected in subsonic cross-flow. The corresponding spray characteristics are correlated with jet operating parameters. The spray dynamics are known to be distinctly different in the three regimes: the column, the ligament and the droplet regimes. The behaviors of column, penetration and breakup of liquid jet have been studied. Numerical and physical models are base on a modified KIVA code. The primary atomization is represented by a wave model base on the KH(Kelvin-Helmholtz) instability that is generated by a high interface relative velocity between the liquid and gas flows. In odor to capture the spray trajectory, CCD camera has been utilized. Numerical and experimental results indicate that the breakup point is delayed by increasing gas momentum ratio and the penetration decreases by increasing Weber number.

The disintegration process of initial spray from high-pressure swirl injector was investigated at different injection pressures. The transient breakup phenomena that were difficult to observe at high injection pressure were easily observed at the low injection pressure of 0.4MPa. The effect of fuel remained inside a nozzle hole volume on the penetration of initial spray was also investigated. The disintegration process of initial spray could be classified four regions: the formation of mushroom shape, the first collision, the second collision, and the development of spray, The liquid film of cup shape was particularly found in the second collision region, and the growth ratio of its length and width at low and high injection pressures were compared.

This paper presents the effect of injection pressure on the atomization characteristics of high-pressure injector in a direct injection gasoline engine both experimentally and numerically. The atomization characteristics such as mean droplet size, mean velocity, and velocity distribution were measured by phase Doppler particle analyzer. The spray development, spray penetration, and global spray structure were visualized using a laser sheet method. In order to investigate the atomization process in more detail, the calculations with the LISA-DDB hybrid model were performed. The results provide the effect of injection pressure on the macroscopic and microscopic behaviors such as spray development, spray penetration, mean droplet size, and mean velocity distribution. It is revealed that the accuracy of prediction is promoted by using the LISA-DDB hybrid breakup model, comparing to the original LISA model or TAB model alone. And the characteristics of the primary and secondary breakups have been investigated by numerical approach.

The purpose of this study is to improve the prediction ability of the atomization and vaporization processes of GDI spray under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions. Several models have been introduced and compared. The atomization process was modeled using hybrid breakup model that is composed of Conical Sheet Disintegration (CSD) model and Aerodynamically Progressed TAB(APTAB) model. The vaporization process was modeled using Spalding model, modified Spalding model and Abramzon ＆ Sirignano model. Exciplex fluorescence method was used for comparing the calculated with the experimental results. The experiment and calculation were performed at the ambient pressure of 0.5 MPa and 1.0 MPa and the ambient temperature of 473k. Comparison of caldulated and experimental spray characteristics was carried out and Abramzon ＆ Sirignano model and modified Spalding model had the better prediction ability for vaporization process than Spalding model.

Electrostatic pressure-swirl nozzle for practical oil burner application has been designed. The charge injection method has been used in this design, where the nozzle consists of a sharp pointed tungsten wire as a charge injector and the nozzle body grounded. The spray characteristics of the nozzles have been investigated by using an insulating liquid, i.e. kerosene without active surface agent. Breakup length of liquid decreased with an increase in applied voltage and injection pressure, while the spray angle increased with an increased in both applied voltage and injection pressure. An empirical equations have been suggested to predict the breakup length for electrostatic pressure-swirl atomizer. The experimental result was within the range of the predicted equations. The SMD decreased between the ranges of 2.8 ${\sim}$ 33% when the conventional nozzle was compared to the electrostatic with -10 kV applied to the electrode at a radial distance from 5 to 20 mm.

The present experimental study investigates the effect of an initial disturbance on the breakup mechanism of a liquid column. With varying the maginitude of the inital disturbance, we measure the surface wave of liquid column with adopting laser shadow method and analyze the growth rate of liquid column and breakup frequency. The experimental results show that thebreakup characteristics of liquid column is significantly influenced by the frequency of the initial disturbance. We concluded that the most uniform droplet occurs when the frequency of initial disturbance coincides with the natural frequency of the liquid column.

The implementation of gelled propellants systems offers high performance, energy management of liquid propulsion, storability, and high density impulse of solid propulsion. The present study focused on the macroscopic spray characteristics of liquid sheets formed by triplet impinging jets of non-Newtonian liquids which are mixed by Carbopol 941 0.5%wt. The results are compared to experiments conducted on spray images which formed by triplet impinging jets concerning with airassist effect at center orifice. When gel propellants are injected by doublet impinging jets at low pressure and high pressure, closed rim pattern shape appeared by polymeric effect from molecular force and showed inactive atomization characteristics, because of extensional viscosity related by restriction of atomization process and breakup time delay of turbulence transition. As increasing mass flow rate of the air(increasing GAR), spray breakup level is also increased.

A multi-dimensioanl model is being increasingly used to predict the thermo-flow field in the gas turbine combustor. This article addresses an integrated survey of modeling of the liquid spray formation and fuel distribution in gas turbine with high-shear nozzle/swirler assembly. The processes of concern include breakup of a liquid jet injected through a hole type orifice into air stream, spray-wall interaction and spray-film interaction, breakup of liquid sheet into ligaments and droplet,5, and secondary droplet breakup. Atomization of liquid through hole nozzle is described using a liquid blobs model and hybrid model of Kelvin-Helmholtz wave and Rayleigh-Taylor wave. The high-speed viscous liquid sheet atomization on the pre-filmer is modeled by a linear stability analysis. Spray-wall interaction model and liquid film model over the wall surface are also considered.

This study describes the external spray characteristics of deflector nozzle such as the breakup procedures of liquid sheet, spray angle, breakup length and bubble behaviors of spray at deflector nozzle. In order to visualize the spray behaviors shadow graphy technique were used. According to the increase injection pressure, deveopment of the spray passes through the dribbling, distoted jet, closed bubble due to the contraction by form a conical sheet like as the simplex swirl atomizer. As trying the analysis of the ratio of bubble length and width it was found that the ratios is comparable. Spray cone angle was nearly $90^{\circ}$.
